- Cryptocurrency exchange wallets:
Exchanges provide convenient deposit and withdrawal methods, but it is not recommended to use exchanges to store Bitcoin. It is recommended to only store assets that need to be traded in the short term, because the private key is in the hands of the exchange and you cannot control your assets. If you choose to store Bitcoin on an exchange, you should choose a well-known and secure exchange and take additional security measures, such as two-factor authentication and withdrawal limits.

- Paper Wallet:
The Bitcoin private key is printed on paper and usually stored in a safe place. Paper wallets provide higher security because the private key is not connected to the network, but it is easy to lose or damage. You can download the bitaddress.org webpage, open it on a computer that has never been connected to the Internet, and save it.
- Multi-signature wallet:
Requiring multiple private keys to sign transactions provides higher security. This type of wallet is usually managed by multiple users to prevent a single private key from being stolen.
- Hardware wallet (recommended):
A hardware wallet is a device designed specifically to securely store cryptocurrency, usually a USB device. Hardware wallets offer greater security because private keys are stored on an offline device, away from cyberattacks. Well-known hardware wallets include Trezor, Ledger, Safepal, Onekey
